Three spirurid nematode species have been collected from Egyptian rodents in Giza province. Streptopharagus kuntzi was collected from stomach and small intestine of Rattus ratus, R. norvegicus, Arvicanthis niloticus and Gerbillus gerbillus. Protospirura muris and P. marsupialis have also been collected from A. niloticus, R. rattus and R. norvegicus but P. marsupialis was collected only from the stomach while P. muris collected from stomach and small intestine. P. marsupialis was firstly recorded in Egypt during this work and no males of this species were collected. Females of S. kuntzi and P. muris showed marked dominance over males. Streptopharagus sudanensis and S. kuntzi are placed in synonomy.
在吉萨省的埃及啮齿动物身上采集到了三种旋尾目线虫。昆氏链尾丝虫是从褐家鼠、挪威大鼠、尼罗多齿小家鼠和沙鼠的胃和小肠中采集到的。鼠原旋尾线虫和袋形原旋尾线虫也从尼罗多齿小家鼠、褐家鼠和挪威大鼠身上采集到，但袋形原旋尾线虫仅从胃中采集到，而鼠原旋尾线虫是从胃和小肠中采集到的。在本次研究中，袋形原旋尾线虫首次在埃及被记录，且未采集到该物种的雄性个体。昆氏链尾丝虫和鼠原旋尾线虫的雌性个体在数量上显著多于雄性个体。苏丹链尾丝虫和昆氏链尾丝虫被视为同物异名。
